- FMFiona· March 15th, 2025Well organised tour with good hotel accomodation. Unfortunately too much chatter talk from the guides. Would not recommend this tour for English speaking people as Spanish speakers were favoured and far too much Spanish. Bilingual tour does not really work well.Show more

Aubrey· January 19th, 2025Speaker needed when guide is talking because you can not hear at the back of bus. Maybe a couple less temples and have a few different sites/attractions.Europamundo commented on this reviewThank you for your feedback!

- FEfrauke· December 18th, 2024Great tour with locations you like to see on the way south to Osaka. Unfortunately the guides changed three times but nevertheless.. they all were amazing with great background knowledge. If you wanna have an overview about a part of japan, that's a great tour to book. Maybe I wished the last day would have finished after a bit more in Osaka but maybe others had a flight to catch. Thank you to the great guides I had!!!!Show moreEuropamundo commented on this reviewThank you for your feedback, and we regret that the organization of the tour didn’t meet your expectations.

- OKOlga· November 11th, 2024As it was mentioned by many reviewers - the tour is bilingual, with Spanish as priority. The guides made their best to provide the translation, but you must understand this is not their native language so this limits the amount of information provided. The switching back and forth btw languages is quite frustrating so you just swithch off from listening. The itinerary was well plannned and this is a good chance to see the most of Japan. The tolels were of the level of Holiday Inn. But not always in the central location.Show moreEuropamundo commented on this reviewThank you for your feedback. We’re pleased to hear that you appreciated the itinerary and had the opportunity to explore Japan. As noted prior to booking, our tours are bilingual to accommodate a diverse group of travelers.

- SCSteven· November 5th, 2024The sites were pretty. The guides spoke mostly Spanish as there were only a few English speaking people on tour.
